DNA Replication Project.

step - DNA starting
step 2 and 3- The DNA starts dividing and starting two new DNA's
step 4- 2 new DNA strands

telomeres- Long stretches at the end of the chromosomes.
okazaki Fragments- When the replication fork opens sufficiently the DNA polymerase begins to synthesize a section of complementary strand.
dna ligase- Stitches the okazaki fragment together.
telomerase- An enzyme that adds telomere repeat sequences to the 3 end of DNA strands.
cancer- Arise from somatic cells, has the ability to divide indefinitely.
transplanted cells- Remove cells from a person, put them with gene because the patient can not synthesize ,and give them back to the person.
cloning- Caused from shortened telomeres.
aging- changes anorganism or object overtime.
